THe Blue 2 seater is a "F" reg which I think is 1988 (My E-Reg moke is 1987), so you can get Classic Insurance on it.

If its a gixer 1000 lump then its anywhere between 140-160bhp depending on the year......it was advertised as a CBR Fireblade motor too.....that would be 954cc and around 140bhp aswell. Either way a quick motor
And I said, Officer, I didn't want to be drunk in public...I wanna be drunk in the bar. Now last time I checked it was still legal to be drunk in the bar. They threw me into public...arrest them!

Sorry Billy but the proportions are all wrong on that one. Rear lights are brutal too.

I still like it but I know I wouldn't fit in it. It makes a difference from the usual off-the-shelf bodykits.

a lot of effort went into it think it would be better if it was a more of a 'boydster' with massive hot rod rear wheels and the front wheels coming out a bit more

The green one witht the bike engine if its a suzuki 900 engine only 900cc bike I know is the rf900 which was a sports tourer thing from the early 90s around 100bhp I think and has carbs any gsxr engine 600, 750 or 1000 would be more powerful but quite revy except for the 1000 which will rev but is stupidly powerful about 180bhp at the crank.
